When multi-millionaire conservationist Damian
Aspinall introduced his new wife to two of his old friends, he didn’t expect to
have to watch out for one of them stealing his wife from him. Especially
considering they are gorillas!

Damian Aspinall bred two gorillas called Djalta
and Ima from being small babies to 12-year-old, fully grown apes, before
releasing them into the jungle. Four years on, it was time to meet them again
in their natural habitat.

Damian wanted to introduce his wife, Victoria,
to the good friends he had raised, but they had to tread carefully. Travelling
through crocodile-infested waters, the pair finally reached the apes in their
new home. The Western Lowland gorillas loved their new home so they weren’t
initially too keen on people they didn’t know coming into their territory.

You might think that, after being left alone in
the jungle for years, Djalta and Ima may not be too happy to see Damian. But
the great creatures welcomed him back with open arms and even got friendly with
his new wife on their first meeting.

After cautiously approaching the apes, Victoria
became friendly with the 300-pound gentle giants and immediately fell in love.
The encounter involved lots of hugs and attention, resulting in Ima stealing
her hat and Victoria lying down in Ima’s lap, allowing him to play with her
hair. It seems like Ima doesn’t want her to ever leave as their bond grows
stronger over the encounter.

I think it’s fair to say that Ima and Djalta
approved of Damian’s new wife; so much so, that they wanted to keep her for
themselves.

Watch the video for yourself to see the amazing
encounter and see if Ima manages to keep Victoria for himself. If you loved
